Transferring device for electrical connectors

Abstract

Disclosed is an electrical connector transferring device, comprising: a first plastic member having at least one row of first upper through holes and at least one row of first lower through holes; a second plastic member having at least one row of second upper through holes corresponding with said one row of first lower through holes, and at least one row of second lower through holes corresponding with said one row of first upper through holes; a first intermediate block having a set of first grooves corresponding with to said one row of first upper through holes, and a set of second grooves corresponding with said one row of first lower through holes, said first intermediate block being assembled to said first plastic member; a second intermediate block having a set of third grooves corresponding with said one row of second lower through holes, and a set of fourth grooves corresponding with said one row of second upper through holes, said second intermediate block being assembled between said first intermediate block and said second plastic member; a first set of terminals each of which having two free ends inserted, respectively, into said one row of first upper through holes and said one row of second lower through holes, and a central portion engaged into said first and said third grooves; a second set of terminals each of which having two free ends inserted, respectively, into said one row of first lower through holes and said one row of second upper through holes, and a central portion engaged into said second and said fourth grooves.

I claim: 
     
       1. An electrical connector transferring device, comprising: a first plastic member having at least one row of first upper throughholes and at least one row of first lower through holes;   a second plastic member having at least one row of second upper through holes corresponding with said one row of first lower through holes, and at least one row of second lower through holes corresponding with said one row of first upper through holes;   a first intermediate block having a set of first grooves corresponding with said one row of first upper through holes, and a set of second grooves corresponding with said one row of first lower through holes, said first intermediate block being assembled to said first plastic member;   a second intermediate block having a set of third grooves corresponding with said one row of second lower through holes, and a set of fourth grooves corresponding with said one row of second upper through holes, said second intermediate block being assembled between said first intermediate block and said second plastic member;   a first set of terminals each of which having two free ends inserted, respectively, into said one row of first upper through holes and said one row of second lower through holes, and a central portion engaged into said first and said third grooves;   a second set of terminals each of which having two free ends inserted, respectively, into said one row of first lower through holes and said one row of second upper through holes, and a central portion engaged into said second and said fourth grooves.   
     
     
       2. An electrical connector transferring device as claimed in claim 1, wherein each of said central portions of said first and said second sets of terminals is formed of a thin metal sheet. 
     
     
       3. An electrical connector transferring device as claimed in claim 2, wherein each of said first and said second sets of terminals is integrally formed. 
     
     
       4. An electrical connector transferring device as claimed in claim 3, further comprising a first metal shell which enclosing and securing said first plastic member and said first intermediate block therein, and a second metal shell which enclosing and securing said second plastic member and said second intermediate block therein, said second metal shell being fixed to said first metal shell.
